Booming Games Sets Sights Eastward

The casino software provider announces new partnerships and new offices in Asia

Isle Of Man – Booming Games has had quite a year. They began with their freshman debut at last year’s ICE Totally Gaming, completed several successful integrations with European operators, and are preparing their return to ICE 2016 in London with double the gaming portfolio. Now, the casino games provider is ready for their next stage of global expansion: Asia.

“Asia is the world’s fastest-growing gaming market,” says Julian Mautner, founder of Booming Games. “It’s a challenging market for sure, but a challenge we are eager and ready to take on.” Mautner explains how players in Asia have their own dispositions to how they like their games to look, feel, and play. Booming Games has the full capacity to adapt all of their games to meet the preferences of Asian gamers, from the themes and aesthetics, to the more technical usability factors and interfaces.

Booming Games is currently in the process of finalizing deals with two partners: XIN Gaming, and Asia Gaming. XIN Gaming is a software and platform provider that also includes 3rd party games, and is excited to include Booming Games’ slots among its portfolio. Asia Gaming specializes in live dealer interactive table games, but they also offer a small selection of eGames. The addition of slots from Booming Games will greatly increase their casino product offerings.

Booming Games’ Brand New Feature: The Rotator

Proven formulas work, and players love reveling in familiarities such as the 5 X 3 grid. But sometimes, we at Booming Games feel constrained by the old structures, and need to takeoff into the unknown.

We want games that have that universal slot machine appeal—with all its special features and bonuses—but we also want to roll out something totally unique. Players love extra features, especially when they get second chances to win on a single bet. So we asked out innovation experts, how can we offer a new feature to entice players, while also presenting a completely novel visual experience?

Just in time for ICE Totally Gaming, kicking off February 02nd in London, we’re dropping the Rotator Feature. We’ve crunched the gameboard to an unconventional 4×4 grid, which might sound square at first, but wait until you trigger the Rotator. Watch the entire gameboard come unstuck from the background and rotate 90 degrees: the symbols have all been repositioned, but the left-to-right paylines remains fixed, thereby giving your players a second chance to win off of one single spin.

For our first theme to showcase our Rotator, we’ve created Galactic Speedway: set in a retro futuristic interstellar jet-powered sports car, Galactic Speedway is sure to captivate both old school slot fans as well as the next generation of gamers. We always aim to keep all markets in our sights, including the young adult players who prefer the fast, action-packed graphics of video games. Galactic Speedway, with the unique Rotator feature, is a sure shot in combining the pure entertainment factor of action video games with the unstoppable appeal of casino gaming. Other upcoming themes to include the Rotator feature is our Roaring 20s Art-Deco theme: Chicago Nights, also to be released around the time of ICE Totally Gaming.

Brand New Feature: The Rotator

Having only been in the slot making game for a little over a year, one would think Booming Games has a lot of work to do to catch up with the big players in offering the full set of standard slot features. However, this is not the case, for Booming Games has been hard at work in creating completely new features.

Introducing their latest creation, The Rotator. Designed for an unconventional square grid, this feature achieves two things: it’s an exciting audio/visual experience, and offers more win chances per spin.

For the Rotator’s big premiere, Booming Games is rolling out a brand new retro futuristic theme: Galactic Speedway, as well as other upcoming releases like the roaring 20s themed Chicago Nights.

ICE Totally Gaming: Appearance and Contest

Booming Games is making its sophomore appearance at ICE Totally Gaming next week in London. The stand is twice the size, the team is twice as big, and the games are better and more numerous.

Last year, Booming Games held an end-of-day giveaway contest that was a huge success, bringing in the crowds to check out the commotion caused by this young company. This year, the contest is back with some improvements. Firstly, the crowd will be treated to a very brief but mind-reeling video presentation showcasing some of Booming Games’ latest games and features, like Scratch Cards and the original Rotator feature. Secondly, the prizes are better, including Apple products, a drone airplane, and a Go-Pro.

“Last year, we were excited to just be in the same room as the major players,” says CEO Max Niehusen, “this year we’re taking a seat at the table.”
